I broke my back to make a company's CEO $6,000,000 and all I got was this stupid Polo mint

YouTube: starts putting 2, sometimes even 3 ads that are often unskippable before and in the middle of 10 minute videos

Also YouTube: Why are people using adblockers?

freedom of speech means that the government cannot censor you. Lemmy is not the government

the final nail for me happened long ago. the site has genuinely sucked for years. all the content in the top subreddits is basically ChatGPT generated rage bait, so many subreddits have turned into right wing shitholes, and Reddit themselves have proven time and time again that they do not care about their users. as always their greed has gotten the best of them

the exact same thing happened with Discord. I've actually disabled my Discord account and only use my Reddit out of habit at this point

the whole point of banning energy drink sales to minors is that minors are at a higher increase of heart issues because their body can't handle caffeine like adults. but sure, everyone else is the idiot on this one and "the economy" is definitely more important than kids' health

I have no idea what's going on then lol. pretty much every shop I've been to has asked for ID when buying energy drinks

eh, fair enough. teenage energy drink addiction has caused me years of insomnia. we already have an age restriction on energy drinks in the UK, though it's 16 not 18

I mean it's literally in the terms and conditions of both the App Store and Play Store for social media to have a block button lol

you don't vote for the prime minister, you vote for the party. no prime minister gets their position because the public wants them to. it's an actual illusion of choice
